When I see Jeffrey Sachs or Robert Malone on youtube or bitchute I give them no credence whatsoever., pigs. They champion their causes and fight for truth now that they are known to be paramount in the conditions they themselves created, and talk so vehemently hoping no one remembers their filthy hands were involved right from the beginning of the chaos they created.

When Ron Paul was running for president his remark, "you don't force democracy down the barrel of a gun", opened my eyes to the lies. Lies, lies everywhere. Democracy is the best there ever was and Communism is a living hell. I have decided that that is all a lie. They've only repeated that mantra of we good, they bad for 100 years. What does repetition imply? For me, it implies indoctrination, a lie. Like Vaccines are safe, 6 million jews, fluoride will fix your teeth, climate change is real and we all need electric cars. Electric cars, think about that.

My house is stifling this summer while the air conditioning is on and I'm wondering why. I'll tell you why. Three charging stations went up recently a mile from me. Someone reported the kilowat usage of a charging station and applied that figure comparatively to 4000 homes. The same. So now, the power cut to my home which is set at 72 during this "heat wave" is rendering my home at 80. Can't open a window because it's Cambodia outside. We will all be living in Cambodia weather if gasoline cars are removed to energize electric cars only. If someone wants to call this Democracy, the people rule, consent of the people, no taxation without representation, it's all yours. Communism just might be better.

From the Berlin-Baghdad railway to Stalingrad to Nordstream...we fight these massive energy wars but talk of dead Archdukes.

Um, wait! This is a true comment, not a complaint or criticism: "Cognitive dissonance" is an already-recognized psychological term, that gets heavier use in some more serious circles, than it does in general conversations. I see what the author means by the phrase "democracy as cognitive dissonance". But when I read that phrase, my OWN cognitive dissonance kicks in, and I want to overcome my "confirmation bias". The ideas here are not too difficult for most people to understand, and more people should understand them. The TRUTHS presented here, are that TOO many people are basically liars, cheats, and thieves, who care more about MONEY, POWER, and CONTROL, than they care about other people. Very SAD....

There, now that I have expressed myself, I feel calmer, and my cognitive dissonance has eased up somewhat!....

Democracy is a fairy tale. A nice concept, but it could never work, even if the powers that run the world would allow it - which they don't. There is a simulation of fake demon-crazy, with nonsensical farces such as elections and "debates" between transgender actors, crazy demons with names like Trump and Harris. It's just a show. Nothing changes. The people who hold power, keep holding power. That's just how things are.

Sorry Machiavelli. Back to making pizzas at your uncle's place, I guess:).
